In a strong and direct attack, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh accused the Congress party of undermining the Constitution and attempting to hijack its principles for political gain. Speaking at a public event, Singh criticized Congress leaders for their actions, alleging that they had repeatedly insulted the Constitution and tried to distort its values to suit their political agenda.
Singh pointed out that the Constitution, which is the backbone of India's democracy, had been repeatedly disrespected by certain political figures, and he warned against any attempts to weaken the nation's foundational principles. The remarks came amid an ongoing political debate over the interpretation and importance of constitutional values in the country’s governance.
The minister emphasized the importance of safeguarding the Constitution from any forces that seek to undermine it for personal or political purposes. He urged all political parties to respect and uphold the values enshrined in the Constitution to ensure the future progress and unity of the country.
This statement has reignited a political controversy, with the Congress party yet to respond to the allegations. Rajnath Singh’s remarks reflect the BJP's ongoing efforts to counter Congress’s criticisms and highlight differences over constitutional issues.
